We review the fundamentals of coupling constant metamorphosis (CCM) and the St\"ackel transform, and apply them to map integrable and superintegrable systems of all orders into other such systems on different manifolds. In general, CCM does not preserve the order of constants of the motion or even take polynomials in the momenta to polynomials in the momenta. We study specializations of these actions which do preserve polynomials and also the structure of the symmetry algebras in both the classical and quantum cases. We give several examples of non-constant curvature 3rd and 4th order superintegrable systems in 2 space dimensions obtained via CCM, with some details on the structure of the symmetry algebras preserved by the transform action.

  1. Hyperbolic Completion of Newton's Off-Center Orbit Problem: $SO(2,1)$ Symmetry, Inversion Duality, and Magnetic Classification

    math-ph 2026-07 accept novelty 6.0

    Zero-energy trajectories of V=−α/(R²−r²)² are arcs of Euclidean circles orthogonal to r=R (force center outside), with on-shell so(2,1) symmetry, inversion duality, and magnetic classification at Q²=8mαR².

  2. Hyperbolic Completion of Newton's Off-Center Orbit Problem: $SO(2,1)$ Symmetry, Inversion Duality, and Magnetic Classification

    math-ph 2026-07 accept novelty 6.0

    Zero-energy orbits of V=−α/(R²−r²)² are hyperbolic geodesics (orthogonal circle arcs) with an SO(2,1) Runge–Lenz map, inversion duality, and a magnetic circle–horocycle–hypercycle trichotomy at Q²=8mαR².

  3. Morse Bridge between Planar Kepler and Hyperbolic Landau Dynamics

    hep-th 2026-07 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    The radial Kepler problem and sectors of the hyperbolic Landau problem are mapped to the Morse spectral problem, relating their bound spectra, resonances, and scattering data.

  4. Morse Bridge between Planar Kepler and Hyperbolic Landau Dynamics

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0

    Planar Kepler and hyperbolic Landau dynamics both reduce to the Morse Hamiltonian, connecting Coulomb coupling to magnetic field times horocyclic momentum and Kepler shells to Morse threshold resonances.
